RIPE PLANTAIN JAM

RIPE PLANTAIN JAM

4 ripe plantains nenthra kaai (kerala banana)
4 cups brown sugar
1 cup ghee

Method:
Peel the plantains, cut them into small pieces and place them
In a heavy saucepan. Add just enough water to cover and cook
Over medium heat, stirring occasionally, so that the plantains
Do not stick to the bottom of the pan.
Cook until it is soft, stir in the brown sugar and mix well.
Mash the cooked plantains with a potato masher.
Stirring continuously add the ghee, a few tablespoons at a time.
After 10 minutes the jam will thicken and start leaving the
Sides of the pan as it is stirred. Remove it from the stove
And let it cool. This jam will keep up to 6 months in the
Refrigerator.
